Pontefract Castle Fillies' Stakes (Fillies' And Mares' Listed) (GBBPlus Race)

Versatile sort who has earned another crack at black type following her success in a solid handicap at Thirsk on return (1½m). Isn't fully exposed at this trip, however, does face a stiff task at the weights.

Borderline useful handicapper who didn't fare much better than on her reappearance when 2¾ lengths fifth behind Brielle at Thirsk and is probably up against it in this sort of company.

Progressive filly with both wins have come on the all-weather, but she ran as well as could be expected in finishing third behind a couple of previous Group 2 winners in the Pinnacle Stakes at Carlisle (11f) last time and does have her sights lowered here.

Useful filly has bumped into a couple of Haggas/Wathnan improvers since making a winning return at Doncaster in April and will at least appreciate the step back up in trip on first start in listed company.

Consistent sort who hasn't won since her 3-y-o days in France, though has finished runner-up in a pair of listed events around 1¼m this season, and should give her running back up in trip for excellent Irish yard.

Low-mileage 4-y-o whose best effort came when fourth (behind Ryka) in a well-contested handicap at Doncaster last September. Possibly found the race coming too soon in a Group at Newmarket later that month and she's well worth a crack at listed level on her return.

Polish Oaks winner (also third in Longchamp listed event) who was unlucky not to make a successful handicap/stable debut on reappearance at Windsor last month (denied a clear run). That was a career-best effort and she has to be respected stepping back up in class.

Well-bred Sea The Stars filly who improved again when recording a fourth career success in good style at Goodwood on return and she's expected to make an immediate impact now upped in grade by her excellent yard.

Without a win since her debut success at Nottingham but went close in listed/Group 3 company last season before running a cracker when ½-length second in an above-average listed race at Haydock on reappearance. Return to longer trip/cheekpieces will do no harm and she can gain a deserved success.
